Lovleg S02E04 Clip 1

Spoken word

She cannot know that every word

you choose to say

ran a marathon in your imagination.

That for every possible combination

of words that win and make up a sentence

you’ve weighed every possible outcome

so her reaction never

lives up to your expectation.

Perfection’s not important, it’s a lifeline,

and you’re in deep waters.

The waves pull you under

you fight your way up, need to reach land

You swim backwards and look up

at the sky, and it’s filled with sand.

As if the sky is taunting you:

the safety you’re seeking,

is above you,

not ahead.

Are you there?

The sky asks.

You stop swimming.

Is everything OK?

Mina: Oh my God, thank you so much! Like, I still get nervous. Teacher: You know, that was awesome. Thank you. It was wonderful to listen to you. Teacher: Guys, if you’re thinking about taking part in her course, go talk to Mina. Mina: I can see some of you thinking: “That’s not for me”. But there’s different types of slam poetry. You need to find your own way of expression. In this course, we’ll find out what that means, and work on how to perform it. G: I would like to participate. Mina: Cool. G: Gunnhild Kvam. Mina: OK. Awesome. Bring the text you want to work with tomorrow, and we’ll take it from there. G: Tomorrow? So, do I have to read the text out loud…? Mina: That’s kind of what it’s about. But it’s going to be so much fun. Maybe you’ll get to know something new about yourself. G: I need to get better at expressing myself, so I don’t just blurt out things when I’m drunk. D: I can relate. Mina: You can? That’s good. So you’ll also participate? D: Yeah. Sign me up. David Ketema. Teacher: Mina, we have some sandwiches in the teacher’s room. Mina: Cool. Some danish pastry as well? G: All right, I’ll be going, then. D: I didn’t know that was your thing? G: It is. I write poetry all the time. Thanks for the support. D: Gunnhild, I was wondering if I could ask for your advice? G: Me? D: You’re together with Luna, aren’t you? G: Yeah, why? D: It’s just… Tina wants to move into my flat. What’s your opinion on that? G: That’s lovely, though. Luna and I technically live on top of each other, as she lives on the second floor. But do you want that? D: I just think it’s a bit too soon. But how do I tell her? G: Then tell her. She’ll notice you’re not keen. D: Just tell her straight up? G: Yeah, you know what? That’s actually what I would do.

Edit: Translator’s note

The actress who plays Mina is actually a slam poet named Evelyn Rasmussen Osazuwa. She did a talk at TEDxOslo and this is the description of the video:

Evelyn Rasmussen Osazuwa is a Norwegian-Nigerian slam poet, spoken word artist and actress. Born, raised and currently living in Oslo, Norway, she has appeared in various theatrical and on-screen productions since she graduated from Nordic Black Theatre Xpress in 2011. In 2017 she represented Norway in the Poetry Slam World Cup "Grand Slam Paris" and became the first Scandinavian as well as the first woman to win. At this TEDxYouth event in Oslo she is performing the spoken word piece "I Wish". (link to video)

The poem is in English, so if you want to get a sense of her style, we recommend you give it a watch!
